Electric Railroads.

The electric street railroad at Scran-
ton, Pa, one of the first if not the very
first in the land, has been running
for eleven months, and far surpasses
the horse car lines in comfort and ca
pacity. The road is between three
and tour miles long, and runs up some
very steep grades. The speed is about
double that of horse cars, and the road
has been a financial success from the
day when the first car was run.

Outwitted by TennysOn.

A man laid wager that would
get an autograph out of Lord Tenny-
son, who is remarkably close in the
distribution of his sign-manual. The
gentleman in question sat down and
wrote polite note asking the noble
lord which, in his opinion, was the
best dictionary of the English language
-Webster's or Ogilvie's. That will
fetch him, thought the man who set
the trap. Did it? By the next post
came half-sheet of note paper, on
which was carefully pasted the word
"Ogilvie's" cut out of the correspOn
dents own letter.
